[thelist] death by banner- the next generation

[CDitty]

If you guys are bothered by this, then you really should go read this 
thread about top text at 
http://gethighforums.com/Forum10/HTML/001386.html.  I found out today that 
it actually takes over your hyperlink.  It gives the user a choice of your 
link, or the top text link (that happens to have a nice description about 
it).  There is even another program called Surf+ that has been reported to 
post links to porn sites.
